Update graphics card on ubuntu - FireCat - 16.02.2014

When I go 'about this computer' it says my graphics card is 'Gallium 0.4 on AMD RV710'

But its an ATI Radeon 5450... I've tried various things,
and I've searched on ******, but I'm without any luck.

Anyone recommend anything?

Use the AMD Driver Autodetect tool

Not only is that not what he's looking for (I think), but that tool is only for Windows.

Have you tried reinstalling the drivers?

Quote:

1. Open a terminal window.

2. Type in the following command, then hit Enter:

sudo software-properties-gtk

3. Click on the Additional Drivers tab in the Software Sources menu.

4. Install your device drivers.

Don't think it makes a difference in Ubuntu version
